In light of the foreign and domestic protesters — including First Nations groups like the Kahnawake Mohawks, masked violent cowards, sore loser athletes — lining up to take a shot at the Olympics, denouncing everything from stolen land to spandex, a new Olympic sport is born: Curmudgeonry-knobbing.

Nothing like the skeleton, because it doesn't require a backbone, nor any display of character, as it takes strength to stand up for something that benefits the majority. Up ‘til now the sport was strictly spectator. In Olympics of the future this event will become more prominent, as it is expected in London, however will likely be resisted in Russia.

So, why do these people protest in Vancouver? Because we have a charter that ensures that whiners, complainers and wackjobs can assemble and voice their opinion free of discrimination and oppression.

To all of you folks while you enjoy your seconds of fame... you’re welcome.
